Somewhere, in a world much like the one in Don't Starve lies characters who resemble the ones from the game we know and love. But past that appearance, almost nothing is the same. There personalities are opposite of the ones we know! (To an extent) Ask these characters a question! The ones you can talk to are: Wilson Willow Wolfgang Wendy WX78 Wickerbottom Woodie Wes Maxwell Sorry! No ROG characters. There will be references to ROG though. In fact, one character heavily relies on ROG logic. Please no direct shipping questions. (No 'Wilson! Go out with Willow' or 'Wolfgang! How is your love life with Wickerbottom', ect.) Relationships are okay though. (Ex. 'Wendy, how is your relationship with Maxwell?)

Hey everybody! I'm an older gamer and podcaster, been streaming and doing let's play videos for a while now, but my usual games started to feel stale. I enjoy survival games in general, and decided to make Don't Starve my first game in the "Survival Series." It also gave me an excuse to return to the game, as I hadn't really played much since caves were introduced. Some of the things that changed bewildered or confused me, but I had a lot of fun recording this series, now collected into a convenient YouTube playlist. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL38z2HywHMTqhouht2ON1yWcTcp7wy-hK Enjoy, and leave me a comment if you came from these forums. I'll be watching this thread, though my preferred status in game forums is "lurk much, talk little."

This isn't so much lore as it is a theory, a game theory of mine, but I think it still fits here. Feedback is appreciated. Whether it's a simple, "This is good." or, "I disagree with this because (list of legitimate reasons)." But please no, "dis is stupud an ur stupud" ok? No one likes that. From what I can tell of the William Carter puzzles, William accumulated debt and was being threatened by who ever he owed the debt too, perhaps loan sharks. He took a train to California to visit his brother and/or escape the lone sharks. However, before he got there, the train crashed and William went missing. Now let's look at the train wreck a bit closer, shall we? The cause of the wreck was a circus cart that had gotten stuck on the track. It crashed in the middle of the dessert, miles away from any civilization. In the chaos, potentially dangerous monkeys escaped. Because of all this, the only person to go missing (aka, William) was presumed dead. So a train crashes in the middle of the desert and the only person to go missing is the one who's being hunted by loan sharks? Seems a bit too convenient, doesn't it? Now one could look at the Strongman title in the circus poster and think, "It was Wolfgang. He did it, and Maxwell found out so he trapped him in the Don't Starve world." Perhaps, but don't you think if Maxwell found the guy who tried to kill him he would punish him a bit more harshly than the random strangers he's pulled in?Now, who can we think of that was punished harshly? Wes. And in the circus poster, who does the man who's balancing on the elephant look like? Wes. My theory is, the loan sharks caught wind of William trying to ride to California. So they contacted Wes, who ether worked for them or owned a debt, and told him to take care of it. Now Wes at this time was a bit more fit than he is now. You kind of have to be in order to balance on an elephant like that. Thus, he was able to find a way to sabotage the train and make sure William ended up in the desert somewhere. Maxwell found out somehow that Wes was behind it and punished him by trapping him in an invisible box. The box wasn't big enough for him to do anything, but it still kept him alive. Thus, Wes' mental and physical deteriorated to the point where it is now. *bows*

Hi! I'm new to the forums here. I played Don't Starve for a while in its early stages, then stopped for a while, and recently returned. And, of course, as with anything I think is amazing, I must draw some terrible art! (For those of you who know my deviantart (dragonunderthestairs) I will post things never before seen as well as some of that deviantart stuff as well. Here's a portrait of Wilson that just happened one lazy day True story Tell me if you want me to make any of the pics larger (Also how to do the spoilers? I know I could look at another thread but I'm too lazy)

Some time ago, a boy was born on a farm in Russia. He was named Wolfgang. From his birth, it was obvious he would grow up to be great and strong. He started working on the farm when he was only 8, and his stunning strength aided his sickly father greatly. Life seemed like it would go on that way forever...but all good things must end. Wolfgang's father died, leaving Wolfgang's mother broken with sadness and Wolfgang a whole farm to keep. He did his job well, but his family was quickly plunging into debt.In a desperate move, Wolfgang's mother sold the family farm. Inspired by a man he had seen at a circus, Wolfgang started a show, showing off his strength for money. It proved to be a great success, and hundreds of people came to watch Wolfgang the Wondrous lifting steel like it was nothing.But the world was changing. With the invention of the steam motor, no longer was great strength needed to push the plow or swing the scythe. Wolfgang continued his show, but could not ignore the dwindling amount of visitors. Day by day, less people came, and the applause of those who did was as empty as Wolfgang's pockets.One day, Wolfgang tried his hardest to get the audience to enjoy his show. He made an attempt to lift the one weight he had never carried. While he failed, he gave off all his strength. But for all his effort, the one man who came laughed at his face. Wolfgang went into a rage, and soon after, he wept over the man's body.The following day, Wolfgang brought his biggest dumbbell and a chain to the side of a lake. Forty feet to the bottom, and this was the one weight he had never managed to lift. He tied the chain to the dumbbell, then tied the other end of the chain to his leg. He then shoved the dumbbell into the water.Wolfgang's life flashed before his eyes, and then he realized what a terrible mistake he had made. He tried desperately to untie the chain, but it was too late. Wolfgang's vision went black, and the lake took him.Could this be the end? He was dry, but the sound of dripping water echoed around him. It was dim, and stank of seawater. It was a cave. As Wolfgang's vision returned to normal, he spotted a slim, suited man who was abnormally tall. This man walked towards Wolfgang, who then saw it was the same man he had attacked. The tall man took a cigar out of his mouse and said, "Hey, pal. Quite a show of bravery there, eh? Well, I've given ya a second chance. In a place where your strength can be appreciated by everyone! Just walk outta this cave, pal, and you'll have the time of your life! Just be careful for my lady friend, heh-she bites."The man then vanished, leaving Wolfgang in a vast wilderness with no sign of civilization. Wolfgang looked at it all for a moment; and he then headed out to redeem himself for what he had done.Fin.

I think that Werepig drop items needs nerfs. They always drop 2 meat and pig skin, while I like the 100% chance for pig skin, 2 meat must go away. Maybe change it to 2 monster meat, or 1 normal meat and 1 monster meat, or just monster meat.

So, my friend told me a few things about Wolfgang, and how powerful he is. He said: "Hey, I was playing Don't Starve yesterday and found out a secret, Wolfgang can eat really fast when you drag the food over to him, and he can kill spiders in 5 hits without a weapon"! So naturally I tried this out when I got home. For those of you who don't know, he does 1.5x normal damage which means 15 punching damage. So he does kill a spider in 5 hits. Also, I tried the click and drag food thing with petals, and it worked! I don't know if this works for every character, or just Wolfgang. Can someone test it for me? Thanks everyone!Note: Wolfgang kills frogs in 2 hits, spiders in 5, pigs in 10, tall birds in 16? and beefalo in about 25.

A few subscribers to my youtube channel have asked about fishing in the ocean. I always tell them you can't do that just yet. But I came up with something and I would like to hear what you guys think. Maybe in a few months users can go fishing in the ocean. How? You say. Well let me explain. They have to build a dock with a light house. Then a boat with a crew of two Pigmen. You have to keep your boat in the light coming from the light house. That way you don't die from sea monsters. Dock = 20 ropes + 20 wooden boards Lighthouse = 20 stone + 1 lighting bulb = 10 Fireflies (blubs have to be replaced every 10 days) Boat = 10 wooden boards + 8 ropes + 5 stone (anchor)
